Italian Restaurant Near Allauch: Pepe Zino, Authentic Trattoria in Aubagne

Allauch sits in the hills above Marseille. The village has kept its Provencal feel, with winding streets, old windmills and hiking trails that climb toward the Massif de l'Etoile. After a walk through the garrigue or an afternoon at Pichauris park, locals often want an Italian restaurant near Allauch without having to drive into central Marseille. Pepe Zino in Aubagne sits just 12 km away, a fifteen-minute ride via the D44a or the A52.

Italian Chefs and Italian Products

Our chefs grew up in Italy. They bring recipes they have practised since childhood, prepared with buffalo mozzarella from Campania, Parma charcuterie, Tuscan olive oil and Italian flour for fresh pasta and Neapolitan pizzas. Every dish is made on site, every day, from the first antipasto to the last dessert. Tiramisu is assembled the same morning, panna cotta is set overnight, and Sicilian cannoli are filled to order.

Our menu covers the great culinary regions of Italy: Pugliese burrata, Piedmontese vitello tonnato, Roman rigatoni all'amatriciana, Neapolitan pizza with 48-hour risen dough, and homemade dolci including tiramisu and cannoli.

Lunch After Pichauris, Dinner After the Allauch Market

Pichauris park draws Sunday morning hikers with its Aleppo pines and garrigue trails. After a few hours on the paths, lunch at Pepe Zino is a fifteen-minute drive south. Midday service runs from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM. The Allauch market on Esplanade Frederic Mistral, every Wednesday and Saturday, is another local routine. People do their shopping in the morning and then look for somewhere to eat. Our 120-seat restaurant is a short drive away, with a menu you will not find on any market stall.
